Forcing Firefox to remember passwords

The Firefox configuration setting wallet.crypto.autocompleteoverride  allows the override of the autocomplete="off" so that passwords are always remembered. This may be useful where Greasemonkey isn't available (i.e. on Android). I'll need to test this...

Of course, this needs to be used with caution (on a test system, if Firefox isn't the default browser...).

As said, on a desktop, a better option is to use a Greasemonkey script or modify the nsLoginManager.js file.
